Meet Chavela! Personality: Snack-Loving Sweet Senior Chavela is a 9-year-old Lab mix who proves that age is just a number. She’s traded in the puppy chaos for charm, manners, and a whole lot of love—and she wears it beautifully. Chavela is wonderfully well-mannered and easy to be around. She walks nicely on leash, knows how to sit, and seems to be house-trained—basically, she’s got the whole “good dog” thing down. And while she’s a mature lady, don’t be fooled—she still loves her walks and is always happy to get out and enjoy some fresh air. She’s got a gentle, joyful spirit and a special appreciation for the simple things in life: a nice stroll, a tasty snack, and a cozy place to rest. (Heavy emphasis on the snacks—she’s a big fan.) Fun Fact: Chavela can hear a treat bag open from impressive distances—it’s basically her superpower. If you’re looking for a sweet, steady companion who will bring warmth, love, and just the right amount of pep to your days, Chavela is ready to leave the shelter behind and settle into a soft bed—hopefully yours.
